Padres rout Mariners after being ripped by team executive (Yahoo Sports)

Alexei Ramirez homered twice and matched his career high with five RBIs, and Adam Rosales and Wil Myers also homered for the San Diego Padres, who beat the Seattle Mariners 14-6 Wednesday night several hours after executive chairman Ron Fowler strongly criticized the team's poor recent play. Jon Jay had four hits while Myers and Yangervis Solarte also each had three hits. The Padres snapped a four-game losing streak, winning for the second time in 10 games.
